This letter would be better intended for an international organization.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-1154189297122393812006-07-29T11:08:00.000-05:002006-07-29T11:08:00.000-05:00Seeing how Condolezza Rice is part of the machine ...Seeing how Condolezza Rice is part of the machine that is thwarting any attempts of cease-fire in Lebanon, I wonder why such letter would even manage to make her bat an eyelash. As long as ARENA, the party some representatives of the US WRONGFULLY endorsed during the elections, is in power... why would they intervene in such case like this? Just for fear of another civil war? That would be the aftermath of US financing one oligarchy before the war, and substuting said support for the neo-olegarchy AFTER the war.<BR/><BR/>Seriously speaking, I'm not so fond of foreign interventions into national business (specially parties that have an obvious political agenda), but even with ONU (that I regard as a pseudo-organization seeing how it isn't truly independant) I have difficulty in trusting.<BR/><BR/>What I don't like about the letter, is like in the PROPAGANDA machine of the country called "media", this letter seems to omit that there WERE snipers stationed on rooftops, and that a police helicopter WAS flying in the university's airspace... and actually shot (who shot? Not well stablished, but it was from either security forces or police), resulting in the injury of someone involved with the UES (was it a teacher?). Point is that something shoddy happened on that day, but do I want US's intervention? No.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-1154017673576152622006-07-27T11:27:00.000-05:002006-07-27T11:27:00.000-05:00I was here before and after this happened and have...I was here before and after this happened and have been to the University afterwards, but in a capacity for seafood business and liaison with the Agronomy school there was business as usual but they did shut down the Universities web site for awhile<BR/><BR/>but I am in agreement with Mystery Me,<BR/>what do our stupid elected officials in USA know about El Salvador, not much, only to get more greedy<BR/>maybe Senator Dodd is one of the few, but he has been silenced by someone in relation to the contra case, which actually is still not over as far as I am concerned<BR/>and Rice give me a break, what an idiot, but then again look who her boss is , a failed oil business Texan evangelical hypocrite,<BR/>as has been written by many before in posts, the choices people have here to express themselves are street protests, and the shooter as all seems to say, acted by himself with the help of a few, the way the CIA works in the world, he was probably one of theirs, paid to start trouble and make the FMLN look bad would not surprise me, especially after all their bad juju here in Latin America for the past 50 some years, <BR/>IMPEACH BUSH NOW!<BR/>Viva La Gente,<BR/>and yes it is rough here, especially with the price of food, I am amazed off to the Central Market,ya to look again, but not much fishing and shrimp exports are nada, due to costs of doing business in that industry and... why are the fishermen paying 20% more for gasoline and diesel when that 20% goes for road improvements, go figure? seems the courts are holding up that change of law, and you wonder why people protest in the streets, especially when the mainstream press that is one-sided and do not deliver BOTH SIDES <BR/>anyway, glad to be here in the 9th happiest country in the world, and not in the USA, what 130th?<BR/>Peace and "eat mo'fish"Hodadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04993011326473703588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-1154012353196673502006-07-27T09:59:00.000-05:002006-07-27T09:59:00.000-05:00I am not sure I am up for expressing my support fo...I am not sure I am up for expressing my support for this letter especially since its so one sided and it assumes that all the facts are know about July 5th. In fact, quite the oposite is true and there are a lot of unanswered questions which leaves me nut trusting a whole lot of people. Lets face it, the Media is crap here and we certainly arenĀ“t getting the whole story. I am certainly not going to back some letter by some rich guys in the US who know very little of live here in El SalvadorMysterious Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11954477860770985245noreply@blogger.com
